Strategy

I work long and hard on researching best practices, similar programs, and potential partners to align the Deaton Institute with ongoing efforts that are both strategic and beneficial for the Institute. Each decision I make is backed by research, either primary or secondary data, and is supported by members on the team.

Public Relations & Communications

I’ve been lead communications for the Deaton Institute’s Deaton Scholars Program for several years and manage our social media presence on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. I also am responsible for email newsletters, scholar onboarding processes, and official communications.

Program Development

I was one of the founding students and have been involved with the Deaton Scholars Program since its inception. Since then, I became the lead program leader in Fall 2019 & Spring 2020, leading the program in a time of vast transition and uncertainty as a result of e-learning propelled by COVID-19. In my semester as program leader, we had the largest number of international student participants and the best equal representation of both undergraduates & graduate students.
